Selection priority
Define the protective duty precisely. Fine suspended particles can pass this opening, so a separate fine-filtration stage may be required.

500 Micron Stainless Steel Filter Mesh
Half-millimetre screening for industrial assemblies
500 micron stainless steel mesh has a 0.5 mm opening target, the coarsest target in this selection. Review it for larger-debris interception and OEM screen inserts when finer particle removal is handled elsewhere.

What Is 500 Micron Stainless Steel Filter Mesh?
500 micron stainless steel filter mesh is woven stainless steel wire cloth specified by a target clear opening of 500 µm (0.5 mm). Incefiltration supplies stainless steel mesh in rolls and reviews cut pieces, discs and OEM components by specification. This is a raw woven mesh selection, not a finished filter-bag rating.
Nearest size comparison
Compare 400 µm as the next finer target in this series. If a larger opening is required, send a custom specification for review rather than assuming availability.
What your quote must confirm
Actual clear opening and tolerance, alloy grade, wire diameter, mesh count, usable dimensions and finished-part requirements. A micron target alone does not identify a complete production specification.
Range reference: Incefiltration stainless steel mesh specification guide. For application-specific confirmation, send your sample or drawing to Incefiltration.
500 Micron stainless steel Mesh Specifications
Use this specification checklist to request 500 micron stainless steel mesh fabric. The final woven construction and availability are confirmed during quotation.
| Parameter | Requirement / confirmation |
|---|---|
| Target clear opening | 500 µm / 0.5 mm; state your acceptable tolerance |
| Material | 304 or 316L stainless steel; exact alloy and weave to be confirmed |
| Weave / rating basis | Confirm plain or twill square-opening construction, or a separately verified Dutch-weave rating |
| Mesh count | Confirm count per inch or centimetre for the offered weave |
| Wire diameter / open area | Confirm against the selected production specification |
| Roll or part dimensions | Specify usable width and length, or drawing dimensions and tolerances |
| Supply format | Rolls, cut pieces, discs, rings, tubes or OEM screens for review |
| Operating conditions | Liquid chemistry, temperature, viscosity, flow, pressure differential and cleaning |
| Inspection / documentation | Agree aperture inspection, sample approval and application-specific documentation |
Opening is not an absolute filtration rating. Woven aperture describes geometry. Retention depends on particle shape, deformation, tolerances and sealing. Define efficiency and test conditions separately where required.
Selecting a 500 µm Opening
Compare 400 µm as the next finer target in this series. If a larger opening is required, send a custom specification for review rather than assuming availability.
400 Micron Stainless Steel Mesh
0.4 mm target. 100 µm smaller than the 500 µm target. Finer opening target than this page.

0.5 mm target. Current selection; confirm production tolerance.
Micron and mesh count are different. 500 micron is not 500 mesh. The wire diameter is needed to relate an aperture to a mesh count. Flow also depends on open area, viscosity, screen size and solids loading.
304, 316L and Weave Selection
304 stainless steel
Review 304 for compatible industrial screening duties. The micron designation does not specify corrosion resistance, allowable temperature or mechanical strength.
316L stainless steel
Review 316L when the process requires a different corrosion-resistance profile. Confirm the full chemical environment and temperature; the alloy name alone does not guarantee suitability.
Plain, twill or Dutch weave
Specify square-opening mesh by its geometric aperture and wire diameter. For Dutch weave, request the manufacturer's verified filtration rating and test basis; do not treat the rating as an equivalent square opening.
Stainless Steel Mesh Rolls, Discs & Custom Parts
Rolls & cut pieces
Specify roll width, roll length or cut dimensions. Confirm usable width, cutting tolerance and packaging for conversion or assembly.
Discs & rings
Provide outside and inside diameters, dimensional tolerances and edge treatment. Check support and sealing in the installed part.
Explore filter mesh discs →Tubes & OEM screens
Submit drawings showing joints, frame contact, mounting and inspection criteria. Fabrication suitability is reviewed for the selected weave.
Custom mesh fabrication →Where to Evaluate 500 Micron Stainless Steel Mesh
Coarse protective screens
Define the protective duty precisely. Fine suspended particles can pass this opening, so a separate fine-filtration stage may be required.
Compatible process liquids
Review stainless steel compatibility with the full formulation, operating temperature and cleaning agents. Test for acceptable particle removal without unwanted retention of useful ingredients.
OEM filter components
Evaluate the assembled screen, including support, edge sealing and joints. For food-contact duties, request documentation for the exact material and intended conditions.

500 Micron Stainless Steel Filter Mesh FAQ
What does 500 micron stainless steel filter mesh mean?
It describes a 500 µm (0.5 mm) clear-opening target for woven stainless-steel woven wire mesh. Confirm the offered production aperture and tolerance before ordering.
Is 500 micron the same as 500 mesh?
No. Micron measures opening size; mesh count describes the number of mesh periods per inch or centimetre. Wire diameter is also required to relate the two.
Is an exact 500 µm construction confirmed?
The stainless steel mesh range lists this size as a purchasing target. The quotation must confirm the actual aperture, mesh count, wire diameter, open area and available width.
Does this mesh provide absolute filtration?
The opening is a geometric specification, not a guaranteed retention efficiency. Particle shape, deformation, sealing and process conditions affect performance. Specify a test method and efficiency requirement if needed.
Can I order custom discs or cut pieces?
Incefiltration can review rolls, cut pieces, discs, rings, tubes and OEM screens. Send dimensions, tolerances, edge finish and quantity with the selected opening target.
What should I check for chemical or food-contact use?
Confirm 304 or 316L against liquid chemistry, chloride exposure, temperature and cleaning conditions. Request documentation for the intended food-contact use and destination market when applicable.
Can 500 micron stainless steel mesh replace a fine filter?
Define the protective duty precisely. Fine suspended particles can pass this opening, so a separate fine-filtration stage may be required. Compare 400 µm as the next finer target in this series. If a larger opening is required, send a custom specification for review rather than assuming availability.
